Chapter 167: Shi Honggu: He's the Devil (Ask for a Monthly Pass!) )

At the beginning, when Li Cun negotiated peace with the Zhao Song Dynasty, Tong Guan felt that Li Cun unilaterally asked for personnel, so that Zhao Ji could not explain to his subjects, so he discussed with Li Cun to return ten people to the Zhao Song Dynasty, making this look like the two sides were exchanging prisoners of war, leaving a little more fig leaf for the Zhao Song Dynasty.

Li Cun didn't want to make any more extraneous branches, so he agreed, but declared that it was not for the Zhao Song Dynasty to give it to whoever he wanted.

After several discussions, Li Cun promised to return Wang Yuan, Liu Guangguo and other ten people to the Zhao and Song dynasties.

Wang Yuan is actually a good general, and Li Cun also wants to keep him.

But I don't know if it was because Wang Yuan felt that Li Cun attached too much importance to Han Shizhong and ignored him, or because Wang Yuan was really an absolute loyal minister of the Zhao and Song Dynasty, in short, Wang Yuan never surrendered.

And Wang Yuan is Tong Guan's favorite general, so among the first people Tong Guan wants is Wang Yuan.

Li Cun considered that although Wang Yuan's level was higher than that of many generals, after all, he was too corrupt in the later period and was still not a first-class talent, and the key was that Wang Yuan was really unwilling to use it for himself.

So Li Cun returned Wang Yuan to Tong Guan.

This time, it was Wang Yuan who led the vanguard of the Song army to advance to the Liao realm, and Yang Keshi, the deputy commander of the capital and the commander of the former army of the Western Road.

- Yang Keshi is the main general, and Wang Yuan is the deputy general.

Tong Guan's order to the Song army was not to cross the Baigou River, that is, just to press the border with a large army, and to scare and scare the people of Northern Liao immediately.

But Yang Keshi, Wang Yuan and others didn't know whether they were sincere in their meritorious service, or they believed what He Shu said, the Yan people had long hoped that Wang Shi would rescue them, and they actually disobeyed Tong Guan's order and led thousands of horse troops to cross the Baigou River into the territory of Liao.

When Yang Keshibu passed by Langoudian, thousands of arrows suddenly shot out in the pine forests on both sides, and the overwhelming arrows fell like raindrops.

The unsuspecting Song army was immediately caught off guard by the Liao army, which had been in ambush all night, and was in a mess.

Langoudian used to be a river, but now it has dried up into a north-south road, with long slopes on both sides.

In other words, the road was narrow and congested, which made it impossible for the Song army to flee when attacked.

In this way, out of the instinct of survival, these Song soldiers and horses could only run around and trample on each other.

Yelu Dashi found the right time, and when the Song army was in chaos, he took the lead in leading two thousand Liao cavalry from the pine forest to rush into Langoudian like a tiger descending from the mountain.

The two sides fought a bloody battle in this Langoudian for nearly an hour.

The Liao people hated the Jin people for dying in their country, and they hated the Song people for taking advantage of the fire to rob, so under the leadership of Yelu Dashi, the Liao army was all fearless and fought with the Song army soldiers without fear of death.

The Song army, although it had the advantage in numbers, became chaotic because of the sneak attack of the Liao army, and was trapped by the terrain, so it could not use its hands and feet at all, and could only rush to meet the enemy without hurting its comrades.

Under the elimination of one and the other's strengths, how can the Song army not be defeated?

In the end, Yang Keshi led hundreds of remnants of the army to defeat the generals, cut a bloody road, and fled back to the Song realm, and the Liao army won the battle at the cost of more than 1,000 casualties......

At the same time, Ma Kuo fought a verbal war with the people of Northern Liao in Yanjing.

The people of Northern Liao think that their emperor Yelu Yanxi is mediocre and has fled to the west, and now people don't know where to go, at this time when the country is in danger, how can the Liao State not have an emperor, so the subjects of the Liao State support Yelu Chun as the emperor, it is normal, what to do in the Zhao Song Dynasty?

The people of Northern Liao took out the Tanyuan Alliance again, saying that the Zhao and Song dynasties should remember that the two countries had been peaceful for hundreds of years, and lent troops to the Liao State to jointly resist the invasion of the Jin people, which is the demeanor of a great power, rather than taking advantage of the fire to rob like now.

Ma Kuo bitten, the ally of the Zhao Song Dynasty was Yelu Yanxi, the real emperor of the Liao State, and Yelu Yanxi was obviously still alive, Yelu Chun stood on his own as a courtier, and also cut Yelu Yanxi as the king of Xiangyin, which violated the road of monarchs and ministers.

Ma Kuo also said that if Yeluchun did not stand on his own, but directly asked the Zhao Song Dynasty for help, it would be impossible for the Zhao Song Dynasty not to save him, and now he could only send troops to seek justice for Yelu Yanxi.

After that, Ma Kuo came out again, and I was a big song

The hundreds of thousands of troops of the dynasty pressed the border, and they could have directly destroyed your Northern Liao, but it was only because of the alliance of Tanyuan that they came to discuss with your Northern Liao to see if your Northern Liao might as well first call the Great Song Dynasty to my Great Song Dynasty and give me an excuse for the Great Song Dynasty to send troops to help your Northern Liao resist the invasion of the Jin Kingdom......

It has to be said that Ma Kuo's negotiation strategy is right.

Well...... In fact, this is not a strategy, it is to use troops to suppress the dying Northern Liao to bow down.

In the face of the Zhao and Song dynasties, which had an absolute advantage in military strength, the desperate people of the Northern Liao were told by Ma Kuo to retreat and began to discuss the matter of calling the Fan Nabiao to the Zhao and Song dynasties behind closed doors.

From this point of view, the strategy of the Zhao Song Dynasty, to be precise, Zhao Ji's strategy, cannot be said to be useless.

However, Zhao Ji may have lacked luck because he was too mediocre, while the Zhao Song dynasty may have lacked national fortune because it was about to come to an end.

Because just when Ma Kuo was about to say that the people who moved the Northern Liao, to be precise, the emperor Yeluchun who was about to move the Northern Liao, Yang Keshi suffered a defeat.

After getting such a result, the people of Northern Liao, who were already ready to compromise, were stunned all of a sudden, and they found Ma Kuo and said, "You boasted of the soldiers of the courtiers, but you were vulnerable, yesterday, I defeated 2,000 men and horses in Dashi Linya, and you defeated Yang Keshi and thousands of men and horses in Langoudian, what do you say?"

Ma Kuo complained to Yang Keshi in his heart: "How can Yang Xianggong lose at this critical moment?"

But on the surface, Ma Kuo still looked as usual, he said coldly: "I lost thousands of people in the war, but we still have hundreds of thousands of troops, even if you win a war, it is difficult to hide the fact that the country is about to be destroyed.

When the people of Northern Liao heard this, they immediately had nothing to say......

……

Just when Yang Keshi was defeated, Wu Lan was cleaning up the battlefield.

Looking at the Tan family thieves who were less than five hundred shivering and letting the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army tie up, Wu Lan couldn't help but caress a small cannon that looked like Menghu squatting.

The head and tail of this cannon are two feet long, and seven iron hoops are added around the body, and the head of the cannon is erected by two iron claws, and there are iron stumbling, and the total weight is 30 catties. It looks like a tiger is powerful and majestic. Before firing, the cannon body must be fixed on the ground with a big iron nail, and each launch can be filled with 100 small lead or small stones weighing five coins, and a large lead bullet or large stone bullet weighing 30 taels is used to press the top, and when the bullets are fired, the large and small bullets fly out together, the roar is like thunder, and the lethality and radiation range are very large, especially suitable for field warfare.

This is one of the new weapons of the Tiger Ben Army - the Tiger Cannon.

Last night, when the battle with the Tan family thieves was in full swing, the Tan family thieves constantly charged the rear army of the guards in a dense combat formation, wanting to concentrate a little and escape from the encirclement.

But every time the rear army used the Tiger Zun cannon to effectively suppress its crazy offensive.

In Wu Lan's view, this Huzun cannon, which does not pick the combat terrain and is mobile and flexible, can be called a battlefield artifact.

Compared with the Huzun cannon, the conscienceless cannon that was blown into an artifact by the Song army is simply rubbish.

Of course, it cannot be said that the conscienceless cannon is useless, and it is still somewhat useful to blow up the enemy's fortifications with the conscienceless cannon or fight a super-large battle like the Metropolitan to defeat them.

But then again, how many of the big wars are there that involve hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands of horses at every turn? The real battles are often the kind of small battles involving hundreds of men and horses, and the battles involving tens of thousands of horses and horses like this one are actually very rare.

Taking into account objective factors such as environmental factors and operational conditions, the cannon without conscience is almost useless.

And this Tiger Zun Cannon is suitable for fighting in mountains, forests, paddy fields, and other combat areas that hinder the mobility of the unconscionable cannon.

Wu Lan felt that the Metropolitan Governor, who "invented" the Tiger Venerable Cannon, was a well-deserved god of war, and his understanding of battle was definitely at the pinnacle.

It's no wonder that the Grand Governor was able to lay down six roads, no, the land of seven roads in less than two years.

Wu Lan was really more and more in awe of the Grand Governor.

However, the place where Wu Lan feared the Metropolitan Governor the most was not that the Metropolitan Governor was invincible, but that it was great

The Governor's discernment.

I think that at the beginning, when the Metropolitan Governor saw the two brothers in the new barracks of the Tiger Ben Army for the first time, he said in public: "Zhao Song asked the general to be a junior colonel, and there is a reason for him to be immortal."

If the Metropolitan Governor just talked casually, Wu Xuan would definitely scoff at it, thinking that the Metropolitan Governor was another hypocritical person who would only casually lose his good words, just like those *** generals in the Zhao Song Dynasty who once said that they appreciated their brothers.

But the Metropolitan Governor is really not just talking.

As soon as the two brothers walked out of the new barracks, the Metropolitan Governor arranged for the two brothers to be in charge, each in charge of 10,000 people, and what he never expected was that the Metropolitan Governor also made him the commander of the rear army!

What is the Governor's Guard?

That is the cradle of the generals and supervisors of the Tiger Army.

And the head of the Metropolitan Governor's personal guard is a position that all the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army dream of.

Be aware of:

The first chiefs of the Metropolitan Governor's personal guards were Kong Zhong and Zhang Gou.

The former is now the capital of the Nanfu Army.

The latter is now the deputy commander of the Xifu Army.

The second chiefs of the Metropolitan Governor's personal guards were Yan Xiaoguang and Cao Cheng.

The former is now the capital of the Dongfu Army.

The latter is now the deputy commander of the Dongfu Army.

These who have been the leaders of the Metropolitan Governor's personal guards are now all big men who stomp their feet and the ground trembles.

Now, he and Wang Sheng are the third chiefs of the Governor's personal guards.

Needless to say, as long as the opportunity is right, he and Wang Sheng will definitely become the real elders of the military in the future.

Let's talk about his brother Wu Jue.

Although his brother Wu Jue did not become the personal guard of the Grand Duke, he also entered the Yulin Army, the pro-army of the Grand Duke, as the commander.

And that's not the point.

The point is that the Metropolitan Governor now has his brother Wu Jue in charge of formulating the battle plan for the national war against Annam and Champa and taking charge of the preliminary arrangements, and the Metropolitan Governor has not given even the slightest instruction.

This is undoubtedly the greatest power given to his brother Wu Jue.

What's more, since the Metropolitan Governor did not interfere in anything in the early stage, it is very likely that with the Governor of the Metropolitan Governor, he will not interfere in the later period, so that even if the person who commanded the national war is not his brother Wu Jue, his brother Wu Jie will definitely hold an extremely important position.

From a small colonel in the Western Army, he became a general who participated in the national war.

This is really trusting their brothers, and they are really their brothers' Bole.

In the face of such trust, what reason did their brother have not to die for the Governor?

After finding out all the thieves of the Tan family hidden in the corpse, Wu Lan went to report to the governor of Dadu.

As soon as Wu Lan entered the hall, he saw Tong Shu, Tong Ji and a large number of civil and military officials of the Tiger Army, all sitting in the hall dozing, some of them simply didn't sleep, and their eyes were red.

Wu Lan came to Tong Ji, who was familiar with him, and asked, "What are you waiting for?" Why don't you go to bed?"

Tong Ji let out a big sigh before he said, "There is a lot of artillery fire outside, and there are thousands or even tens of thousands of water thieves attacking here, how many of them can sleep?"

As soon as Tong Ji's voice fell, Li Cun walked out of the room refreshed.

In addition to following Liang Hongyu and Yan Zhengu as usual, Li Cun also followed a woman of about twenty years old with sword eyebrows and starry eyes and delicate facial features.

Undoubtedly, this woman is Shi Honggu, the big boss of the Tan family thief.

Shi Honggu's appearance is not very stunning, at least it can't be compared with Annie, but it can be regarded as a middle-class talent.

- The main reason why many people give Shi Honggu this evaluation is because Shi Honggu's skin is a little dark.

And if you let Li Cun say it, this is actually the healthiest wheat color, high-end goods, a group of old hats, and I don't understand anything.

There was the bold one, and after a closer look, he saw that Shi Honggu's eyes were red and swollen, obviously crying.

These people can't help but admire the Metropolitan Governor so much that they are all on the ground, and the famous Tanka family thief is the big boss Honggu

, they were all made to cry by the Metropolitan Governor.

Terrible!

Admire!

Li Cun saw that Tong Shu and the others didn't seem to have slept all night, and also asked the same question as Wu Lan: "Why don't you sleep?"

Tong Shu smiled bitterly: "There has been a battle outside, how dare the ministers sleep peacefully, but the Metropolitan Governor, really make the ministers admire, the fierce battle outside is in full swing, and it can not affect the Metropolitan Governor's rest."

Tong Shu and the others added in their hearts: "I can still sleep with Honggu, the big boss of the Tan family, the thief, and the heart of the Metropolitan Governor is really big in the sky."

Li Cun smiled and said, "I have the general Wu Lan, why can't I sleep peacefully?"

Li Cun is not lifting Wu Lan, nor is he winning Wu Lan's heart, but Li Cunzhen feels that Wu Lan is so reliable.

It can even be said that in Li Cun's opinion, in terms of offensive ability, among the Song generals, the only one who can barely compare with Yue Fei may be Wu Lan, and even Liu Qi is slightly worse.

As for Wu Jue, whose military exploits seem to be higher and his combat achievements look more brilliant, Li Cunyo does not deny that he is also an extremely outstanding commander, but the battles he has fought are mostly defensive counterattacks, whether it is the victory of the monk Yuan, or the battle of Xianren Pass, although they all killed the Jin people to pieces and kept half of the Southern Song Dynasty, but there is one thing to say, after all, he has a geographical advantage, and his ability to fight in the field is not too prominent.

On the other hand, Yue Fei and Wu Lan really fought and won against the world's first-class strong army, Jin Jun.

What Li Cun thinks, how can others know, but just because of Li Cun's trust in Wu Lan who is not mixed with any water, others know that Wu Lan will definitely make a fortune, and Wu Lan will definitely die for Li Cun, and he will definitely die for Li Cun.

Wu Lan stepped forward and respectfully reported: "Governor, the ministers have completely annihilated the water thieves who came last night, except for the four hundred and twenty-three who were captured alive, all the rest were ambushed."

After listening to Wu Ling's report, Shi Honggu's wheat-colored face immediately turned pale.

Li Cun smiled and said, "Let's go, take a look."

Li Cun took his civil and military officials to the outside, and then saw the Tan family thieves kneeling on the ground, and Xu Dadao was also among them.

- Shi Honggu's female guards are definitely not among them, women can only be regarded as trophies of the Tiger Army, and they are good things that will not be killed easily.

Li Cun glanced at it casually, and then patted Shi Honggu's buttocks and asked her to step forward to pick the twenty Tan family thieves she promised to pardon last night.

Li Cun reminded Shi Honggu with a smile: "Don't pick the wrong person, otherwise, if you pick it out, I will also order him to be executed, so that you will waste a place in vain."

Shi Honggu's heart is like a knife.

Shi Honggu knew that the Tan family thief was over, and it was completely over.

It's not that Shi Honggu hasn't worked hard, she really can do everything, but in the end, she only managed to get back twenty places that can survive.

Shi Honggu secretly glanced at Li Cun and said secretly: "Everyone else is afraid of me like a devil, how do you know that he is the devil, I am just a fish and a plaything in his eyes, I want to capture the thief and capture the king first, I am really asking for my own death!"

At this time, Li Cun's impatient voice sounded from behind Shi Honggu: "You are already my concubine, and this generation is useless, otherwise you will be killed, lest you be lucky."

Shi Honggu hurriedly said: "The Metropolitan Governor is the king, the monarch has no jokes, the Metropolitan Governor promised to release the concubine to twenty relatives, it is unspeakable and untrustworthy, the concubine body will be selected, this will be chosen!"

Shi Honggu didn't dare to hesitate anymore, nor did she dare to look at the begging eyes of the Tan family thieves that she was very familiar with, she hurriedly selected people according to the list that had already been weighed.

The people Shi Honggu chose were almost all her relatives or relatives, and Xu Dadao was obviously not among them.

Seeing that he was about to be dragged down and executed, Xu Dadao shouted loudly: "Dadu Governor, the villain knows all the dens of the Tan family thieves, and he is willing to lead the way for Dadu Governor to get those gold and silver property."

Li Cun was unmoved, because last night Shi Honggu had promised to give the accumulation of several generations of the Tan family thief, so that Li Cun promised to release her ten relatives, as for how Shi Honggu got the other ten

Places, hehe...... Bedrooms are not allowed to be humane to outsiders.

Seeing that Li Cun didn't look back, Xu Dadao knew that it must be Shi Honggu who had agreed to the matter.

Xu Dadao's mind was racing, and then he shouted loudly: "One of the people saved by Shi Honggu is Zheng Long's adopted son Zheng Bao, who is ambitious and wants to seek an adoptive mother."

「?」

Li Cun turned around and asked Xu Dadao, "Who is Zheng Bao?"

Xu Dadao was overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "The person on the left side of the Shi Da family is."

Li Cun looked to Shi Honggu's left side, and saw that Zheng Bao was a half-sized man with thick eyebrows and big eyes.

Li Cun smiled and said, "Good looks."

Then, without waiting for Zheng Bao to say anything, Li Cun smiled unchanged and said, "Kill."

Hearing this, Wu Lan didn't even hesitate and directly took out a long knife and stabbed Zheng Bao to death.

Could it be that Xu Dadao framed Zheng Bao in order to survive.

There is such a possibility.

But so what?

To be honest, that is, Li Cun was worried about the accumulation of the Tan family thieves, and he wanted to leave a few relatives for Shi Honggu, otherwise Li Cun would not let go of these twenty Tan family thieves.

Don't forget, these people are all pirates, and none of them are innocent.

Moreover, when they came here yesterday, they rushed to catch or kill Li Cun, and Li Cun should share it when he killed them.

What's more, Li Cun also issued a strict order that unless it was a pirate who had made meritorious contributions, all of them would be executed.

You don't have any jokes, but it's not just talking.

Shi Honggu looked at Li Cun with tears in the corners of her eyes, as if to say, "You promised to let me choose twenty people, besides, you know that I have nothing to do with Zheng Bao."

Li Cun didn't say that I didn't have the habit of raising a son for the enemy, but smiled and said, "Xu Dadao is a good person, I'll help you choose one."

After hearing Li Cun's words, Xu Dadao, who had been dragged out for a long time, was immediately dragged back again.

Seeing this, the other Tan family thieves followed Xu Dadao's example and framed the people rescued by Shi Honggu, wanting to fight for a place for themselves to live.

But this time, Li Cun didn't listen to it anymore.

Xu Dadao came to Li Cun's side, and "poof" knelt down for Li Cun at once, and then kowtowed desperately and said: "The Tan family thieves have a total of twenty-seven treasure hiding places, and the villain is the one in charge of the property among the Tan family thieves, and they all know the detailed number and detailed places, including the secret treasure hiding place of Zheng Long and the secret treasure hiding place of the Shi Da family, the villain is willing to take out all the twenty-seven treasures with the Metropolitan Governor, and I only ask the Metropolitan Governor to let my two sons live."

Afraid that Li Cun would not agree, Xu Dadao kowtowed and added: "The villain's two sons are both in the nest on Lantau Island, not in this list, and they do not violate the orders of the Metropolitan Governor."

After hearing this, Li Cun looked at Shi Honggu with a smile: "Twenty-seven, tsk~"

And Shi Honggu bit her lower lip lightly, silent, she regretted not saving Xu Dadao, the elder of the Three Dynasties who had been in charge of the Tan family's thieves for almost twenty years.

But Shi Honggu really can't help it, she can't help but save her own family and save Xu Dadao, right?

Li Cun looked at Xu Dadao: "Take my personal guards to take out these twenty-seven belongings, and your family will be pardoned, and there will be another reward."

Xu Dadao was overjoyed, and immediately kowtowed, "No!"

Then, Li Cun grabbed Shi Honggu's arm, and then dragged her towards the Xu Mansion, and at the same time said in a low voice, "You can explain to me in a while, what are you going to do with the eighteen treasure places that you don't talk about?"
